Tasha and Kyel Wedding Tapestry House

I shot Tasha and Kyel’s wedding last weekend at the Tapestry House near Fort Collins, CO. This was my first time shooting here and I really liked the venue. The grounds include a beautifully restored Victorian home, a barn (converted into the office), an outdoor gazebo for wedding ceremonies, and a reception hall. I can only imagine how pretty this place is in the spring and summer months with blooming flowers. Tasha and Kyel made a great couple and the guests were having a lot of fun which always makes for great candid photography. I can’t wait to go back here for another wedding.
